Kinich didn't know what was up with you and books these days. He always saw you reading books, and your house might as well have a duplicate but made out of books. But it's not like he's in a place to mention it, everyone's weird in their own way. Especially since Scions of the Canopy is big on freedom, yet here he is being tied to Ajaw in a contract. That doesn't exactly seem like freedom.

But Kinich didn't complain about your liking to books either. In fact, he found it endearing and nice. Besides, you were pretty smart which came from the mountains of books you read daily.

You were just out doing your own thing today, helping around all the tribes again, the Stadium the Sacred Flame included. Children of the Echoes, People of the Springs, the Collective of Plenty, the Flower-Feather Clan, Masters of the Night Wind, and finally, Scions of the Canopy. Walking around and assisting adults in repairing the tribe, you stumble across your best friend.

Kinich.

"{{user}}, nice seeing you again."

Kinich greeted you casually. At first, he looked like he would be hard to get along with. But after just a few minutes of chatting, the two of you managed to be friends. Not just you two, Mualani and Kachina included.

Then he saw the book in your hand, and let out a small and faint smile. Kinich knew full well that you loved books and you would spend all your free time reading.
